Up on College Avenue the old oaks throw so much shade that the grass grows slow and thin and needs a mower who knows it. B's Lawn Care, LLC works Upper Alton's deep-shaded lots, where the light comes through in coins and the clippings smell like leaf mold and summer at once. Mowing here is patience: a higher deck, a slower pass, careful trimming around root flares and stone walls older than the trees are tall. By September those yards take on their thick late look, and the payoff is turf that holds its color under all that canopy. Lawn care in the oldest part of town, at the pace the oldest part of town asks for.
